New York correspondent writes to the
Cincinnati Commercial-Gazette of the estab-
lishment of new transcOntinental railway
route which is soon to be opened between
the Atlantic and Pacific by what is known in
railway circles as the Bryce Thomas syndi-
cate, the syndicate which now controls the
East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia, and
the Lake Erie and Western systems. This
letter is of interest to Portland because Port
land is named in the letter as one of the
most important ports at the Eastern terminus
of the new system, which will be virtual
extension of the Northern Pacific to the
Atlantic seaboard according to the old plan
of bridging at Sault Ste. Marie. The writer
claims for this new route that it will be from
two hundred to three hundred miles shorter
than any existing route, shorter even than
the Canadian Pacific route, which has been
claimed as the shortest possible since it runs
''around the neck'' of the globe, instead Of
"around the waist" The Northern Pacific
has at present been completed as far east as

of Duluth. BY building over two hundred

continuous line from Duluth ard Ashland,
through the northern peninsular of Michi-
gan to Sault Ste. Marie, on the straits which
unite Lake Superior and Huron. The
Canadian Pacific has been induced to extend
its line from Algoma Mills to Sault Ste.
Marie, distance of eighty miles, and con-
tribute one half of the cost of the bridge
across the straits. The correspondent of the
Commercial-Gazette says that the completion
of the line, including the bridge. Twill be
matter of very few months" and that by
''early next spring the new transcontinental
line Of railway win be in operation from Port
land, Oregon, and Tacoma, over the North
ern Pacific, to Superior City, and thence to
the Sault along the Duluth, South Shore
and Atlantic, and by way of Algoma Mills
and Sudbury, over the Canadian Pacific, Co
Ottawa, Montreal, Portland, Maine, and all
New England which will he from two hun
bred to three hundred miles shorter than any
existing route" The entire route from Liv-
erpool to Yokohama, ria Boston or Portland,
Maine, and Portland. Oregon, over the new
route is estimated to be one thousand miles
shorter than by the way Of New York and
San Francisco.
In this scheme there is nothing very new.
Portland has looked for years for short
line by Saut Ste. Marie to the Northwest.
In theory this route is as old as it has been
considered feasible. The realization Of a
practical exemplifcation Of this theory has
been awaited as more remote than the cor
respondent Of the Cincinnati Commercial
Gazette implies.

simply gives to our vessels privileges that
belong to us by right. Nevertheless we
have no doubt that the British commission
will insist that we must pay for it. And
this win force the American commissioners
to end the negotiations or to enter upon the
consideration of a question which the Ameri-
can Senate with practical unanimity refused
to approve the appointment of a commission
to consider. Practically the American Senate
and the House of Representatives as well has
declared that the privilege Of fishing within
the three mile limit is not worth paying for,
and that to commercial privileges in Domin-
ion ports we arc entitled by right. The
chances that either house will reconsider its
decision in Difference TO any arrangement
that this commission may make are altogeth-
er too small to Justify Mr.. Bayard in nego-
tiating for the purchase Of these privileges.
If he fails to get modification of the Treaty
without paying for it he might as well dis
band his commission.

The Future Vanderbilt.
[Chicago Tribunc.l

What has for months been a very quiet ru-
NOR in few financial circles proves to be
fact. William K. Vanderbilt has resigned
the Vanderbiltcy to Cornelius Vanderbilt.
These two elder sons of William II. Wander
bit were left in the possession of the bulk of
the estate and the control of the Vanderbilt
railroads. In business transaction which
your correspondent saw in the original pa
pers, power of attorney was shown under
which CordeIius has perpetual and irrevoc-
able control of the entire railroad proprieties
Williem K. was by his father left in equal
interest, and it was the dead millionaires in
tention that they should divide the duties Of
management But the younger man has de-
cided TO lead an easier life, and will here
after have nothing TO do with money-making.
On the other hand, Corn elius Vanderbilt is
ambitious to become the Vanderbilt, and his
way is now clear to do so. Willie as his
friends call him, has gone on a steam-yacht-
ing tour around the world, and he has hired
seasons stay, but for five years. He lately
wrote that he was negotiating for place in
southern France 1t is understood to be his
plan to establish residences in half a dozen
attractive regions, so that he can shift his
family from country to country as their
wishes may dictate. he will aim for the
rest Of his life to enjoy himself socially.
Cornelius Vanderbilt is therefore left the
successor of his father and grandfather as
the Vanderbilt. With Chauncey M. Depew
as a lieutenant he is actually the head of the
railroad system which the family owns; and
he is no whit behind his ancestors in strenu-
Gus efforts to multiply the .$80.000.0O0 which
they gave to him. But he has higher am
bition, and it is to be a philxnthropist.
Within a week medical college and hospit-
al endowed by his father has opened an an
mex at cost to Cornelius Of 100000. The
Railroad Mems building, sort OF club house
for his employees, has been inaugrated at an
outlay of 100000; he has given 100000 to
build new cancer hospital; and his small
er benefactions have included goodly gift
to the Church Of the Strangers, which the
Commodore originally bought fol-. Rev. Dr.
Deems. Cornelius is man of virile intellect,
decidedly religious and looks so much like q
Vanderbilt that twenty years hence he VIII
probably be able to sit for portrait of his
father. He does not live in the famous
brown-stone square of mansions occupied by
the widow and her two married daughters,
but in much handsomer and more ornate
house little further up Fifth Avenue. This
Is regarded as the finest residence in Amer
lea. Cornelius is not only bound to be Mr..
Vanderbilt distinctiyely. but he means to
conquer popularity in spite of his wealth

A number of clergymen have been heard
from, who, like DR.. Pentecost of New York,
preached sermons in defense or extenuation
Of the crime of the Anarchists. One of them
was Rev. j. c. Kimball, of Unity Church,
Hartford, Connecticut. On the Sunday
after the execution he took for his text the
passage in st. Luke's giving the cry of the
mob, Cruelty him, cruelty him." and
preached a sermon likening the example of
the Anarchists to the example of Christ.
True anarchy was the highest peace, he de-
clared. The Hartford Courant published a
report of the sermon, accompanied by an
editorial properly denouncing the preacher.
So strong is the feeling in Hartford that the
preacher has become alarmed and seeks to
smooth over the worst passages. But the
Courant stands by its report, and repeats
its denunciation of the preacher.

If we mistake not the Boston Herald sug-
gested the purchase Of the maritime provinces
as a way to settle the fishery dispute some
weeks before Mr.. Edward Atkinson preached
the same scheme. There need be no controyer-
sy, however, concerning where the credit
of the suggestion should go, because there is
very little credit in it. England is not likely
to consent that her American colony shall be
so cut off from the sea coast that she cannot
communicate with her from the east except
by crossing American territory. Besides the
United States has all the territory it wants
and all II can well take care Of.
